db migration commands results in errors when using inline/exploded plugins

[snimavat]

When a project uses any plugin as exploded as below

grails {
    exploded = true
    plugins {
        compile project(':inline-plugin')
    }
}

Db migration will try to run the commands on the plugin too, and will fails with error

Try with attached example
bugwork.zip

run the grails dam-generate-gorm-changelog on the app and u should see the error.

Same problem here. Has anyone had any workarounds?

[Giacom]

The only 'work-around' I have found is to use dbmUpdate, or other commands, using gradle.

Example:

# dbm-update for root project only
grails gradle :dbmUpdate

I discovered an even better workaround if you can edit the inline project.

If you add this to your inline project's build.gradle:

//
// Workaround for the database migration plugin.
//
// If the root project has the database migration plugin then trying to execute
// its commands will try to trigger the task on this library,
// which then causes errors and stops the command from running.
// This workaround will mimic the command so it will not throw an error.

task dbmStatus(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmChangelogSync(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmChangelogSyncSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmClearChecksums(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmDbDoc(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmDiff(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmDropAll(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmFutureRollbackCountSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmFutureRollbackSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmGenerateChangelog(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmGenerateGormChangelog(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmGormDiff(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmListLocks(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmMarkNextChangesetRan(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmMarkNextChangesetRanSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmReleaseLocks(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmRollback(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmRollbackCount(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmRollbackCountSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmRollbackSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmRollbackToDate(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmRollbackToDateSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmStatus(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmTag(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmUpdate(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmUpdateCount(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmUpdateCountSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmUpdateSql(overwrite: true) {}
task dbmValidate(overwrite: true) {}

It will override the tasks and allow you to perform the normal commands on your root project.
